The draw was a 2–2 scoreline at Wolverhampton Wanderers.[2] Following the appointments of both Laws and Alan Irvine, he returned to his career as the Owls' Academy head coach.

Following the sacking of Brian Laws on 13 December 2009, McAuley was re-installed as caretaker manager, until a replacement could be found. His first game was a 2–0 home defeat to Swansea.[3] He then went on to draw 2–2 with league leaders Newcastle United and lose 2–1 to Crystal Palace in the 3rd round of the FA Cup, both at home.[4]

McAuley was also involved in Sheffield Wednesday's work to build partner relationships with clubs in North America.
